The Lost Eden "
By William Watson
T~"\ roffering fortunes
-*■ Out of his indigence,
Royal the dowry
Man promised his soul.
“ Not as the beasts
That perish, am I,” he said.
“ Mine is eternity,
Theirs the frail day.”
Crown of creation
Long he conceited him
Next to their fashioner,
Lord of the worlds.
